DraftKings: 3 fantasy sleepers for Jan. 12

Andrew Harrison ($4,100)

Andrew Harrison isn’t one of the more exciting names you could hear on this list, but that’s what makes him such a great sleeper. Usually, behind Mike Conley and Tyreke Evans, Harrison only averages about 19 minutes a game. But Conley has been injured for a bit now and it looks like the Grizzlies have finally decided to give him some more playing time.

Harrison’s last game against the New Orleans Pelicans on Jan. 10 saw him get 30 minutes. In that time he scored 11 points, grabbed seven rebounds, recorded three assists and blocked two shots. Not a bad showing for Harrison in his first game with significant minutes.

Harrison also only shot 3-for-11 from the field, meaning there’s plenty of room for improvement. Harrison’s price is the best part of this sleeper. At $4,100, Harrison will only need to play a significant amount of minutes to contribute to your team.

But then there’s the matchup. The Denver Nuggets are the 28th worst team defending the point guard position this year. Even worse, the last four games the Nuggets have played, the point guard has been the leading scorer on that team.
